RGK Elite X Basketball Wheelchair
The next generation basketball wheelchair is here.
A quantum leap in design, the RGK Elite X basketball wheelchair is the perfect combination of new technology and materials. At its core, this transcendent chair has a unique, pioneering carbon fibre axle, making it significantly stiffer and lighter. The Tri-frame chassis design makes a world of difference to the distribution of energy during play. With the perfection of performance and responsiveness that the Elite X has, you certainly won’t be able to blame the wheelchair anymore.
More Information
Carbon fibre axle
The carbon fibre axle on the Elite X offers a huge weight saving compared to the aluminium axle. It also enhances the stiffness and rigidity of your chair with carbon fibre as carbon fibre is eight times stronger than aluminium.
The axle is clamped to the frame, and not welded in position. This provides post-build fine tuning of the toe in/toe out so you can get your chair rolling absolutely perfectly.
Carbon fibre sideguards
Up to 100g total weight saving was achieved on the RGK Elite X thanks to switching from aluminium to carbon fibre. This basketball wheelchair comes with a specialised CNC sidearm, made to measure each and every time, allowing for any shape to be created and giving a beautiful edge that is near on impossible to get when working with carbon fibre.
Ergonomics
The Elite X is available with a range of ergonomic backrest options to support your requirements for maximum comfort and balance. An Ergonomic seat is also available for pelvic positioning and optimum balance. The Elite X also comes with a Taper seat, V-front or asymmetrical frame design for super responsiveness.
Tri-Frame
The Tri-frame is a brand-new design that better distributes the energy created during play across more sections of the chair, giving you peace of mind that your chair can withstand anything. Instead of relying solely on the axle, the force is now split across the downtube, the strongest part of the frame.
The Elite X also is available with a heavy duty frame design, and reinforced ‘impact areas’ to prevent game and travel damage.
Frame options
The Elite X is available with fixed or adjustable footrest position, single or double anti-tip, fixed or removable anti-tip, and a range of front wing designs. Whatever you need, the Elite X can achieve.
